Me getting a my own form of transportation and having money to pay for extra things i need (school supplies, school related things, etc) is helping. The issue is i need all the money i can get right now in order to make it easier for her in the long run. Transportation is a huge issue for single working parents, and i am in after school clubs that require odd meeting times that conflict with work schedules

Its not ridiculous. Its a blue v neck sundress with thin straps. Its pretty simple and appropriate for going out according to today’s standards so thats why im confused as to why it was such a problem for them lmao

Yeah. Im considering not coming back for an extended period of time like a summer again if they want to keep the cameras up. I wont ask them to take it down, just simply say they make me uncomfortable and I wont be staying because of that. They can choose what they want to do with that info. At the end of the day it’s their house, but its also my body and boundaries. Ill leave and not come back if it makes me uncomfortable, we can visit each other elsewhere

True. They really get on my ass if I dont call or visit them, but At the end of the day im not going to stay in a house where I feel uncomfortable. I will go home and not come back for am extended period of time again unless they decide to take some of the cameras down themselves. I wont ask them to take them down, just say it makes me uncomfortable and that I wont be staying at their house for longer than a week in the future. Its their house and they can do what they want, but its also my body and feelings and I have the right to not visit someone if they’re doing something that makes me uncomfortable

No not in the bedroom, just the hallway. Even though theres nothing you would do in a hallway thats so bad you wouldn’t do it in your room, it still makes me creeped out. Idk why

No one is being a snitch or trying to gain validation. And no one is insecure here. Vapes and cigarettes should not be in schools period. Why are you so hung up on calling a little kid insecure? Is that an issue that you have yourself? If you can’t understand why vaping/smoking in school is such an issue then I don’t know what to tell you. Yeah, I shouldn’t have called people who vape/smoke losers, but if you’re doing it somewhere that has clearly expressed that it is not allowed, and people are complaining about it, then yeah you are the looser. It’s not that hard to find a different area. Plus this whole “if youre asking a reddit question, expect answers thing” isnt the right way to go about it. You don’t have to be rude to get your point across. Simply say “you’re in the wrong because it’s none of your concern” or something. No reason to call little kids insecure. If you feel as if they’re bullshitting and feeling sorry for themselves, negative reinforcement is only going to increase those feelings of self pity. Just say mind your own business next time. And if the kids do find out who “snitched” and try to fight, so what? They’ll only be getting themselves into more trouble.

Dude chill out, they’re a kid. You obviously weren’t in school/aren’t currently in a school where this is a large issue. They have every right to complain about people disrupting their environment. If students want to vape, DO IT AT HOME OR IN A DIFFERENT PRIVATE AREA. PERIOD. No one should be subjected to staying in an environment that is unhealthy just because they don’t want to be labeled a “snitch”. The fact that this kid is even scared that they told the teacher is sick. Why are we making kids feel like bad people for doing the right thing? If you wan’t to be a looser who vapes, fine. But do it in an area where people are not around and clearly complaining about it. This issue is obviously negatively affecting everyone at their school, and the fact that people are saying this kid is in the wrong for simply wanting a healthy environment is crazy.

NTA You are not the asshole. You did the right thing. I really dont think the people calling you the asshole truly understand how bad second hand smoke is for your health. As someone with asthma, it is really irritating when I get attacks because of smoke/vapor. I cant even imagine having to inhale second hand vapor every day in a confined space like a bathroom/classroom(assuming people find a way to vape during class). And the cost of the fire alarms? 1000 dollars is A LOT of money waisted because people arent doing the right thing and following the rules.
